I don't recommend Apple's keychain. It's smart enough to track usernames and passwords and feels very satisfying to use on an iPhone, but doesn't capture some other parts of authentication. This includes security questions, OTP, capturing notes around how sign-ins can be weird (HSAs and other portals rife with redirects), and non-iOS devices (as well as non-safari browsers).

Bitwarden is fantastic. I pay for the OTP features, though I feel keeping the codes alongside my passwords weakens my security posture. That's my choice, though.

I use Apple keychain in conjunction with KeePassX. Apple keychain for the convenience, but KeePassX is the master storage.
I was thinking of doing this but how do you keep Apple keychain and KeePass in sync? Or do you manually update both?
I manually update KeePassXC.
